I’m serious. The proper way to use a gym is to get two memberships for two different gyms at the same time—train solidly and thoroughly in the first one, and then let yourself go in the second.
At the start, people at the second gym will laugh at you behind your back, saying, “What the hell is this dude even trying to do?”
But as you keep putting in effort in the first gym, your body slowly changes. Then you’ll realize the people in the second gym can’t laugh anymore. They clearly don’t understand what you’re doing, but the changes in your body are right there.
They’ll start to wonder:
“Could it be that he’s actually training the right way?”
And then people will start imitating you. Some might even come to ask you for advice. They’ll think you’re a real, low-key expert hidden in plain sight.
